DREAM.4 Predictions
Posted by angryfightfan on June 13, 2008
I’m a little strapped for time, so I’m just going to throw up picks for the main fights this weekend. I’m looking forward to the DREAM event as I’m a big fan of Japanese MMA shows, although I’d like to have seen Sakuraba fight someone who isn’t going to bash his head in. I also really like the tournaments even though the best guy usually doesn’t win it. The two DREAM tournaments currently taking place aren’t the greatest lineups of talent out there, but they both have some good fighters in there.
DREAM.4 Predictions
Shinya Aoki vs Katsuhiko Nagata
(Lightweight Grand Prix)
Aoki by decision after 15 minutes
Ronaldo ’Jacare’ de Souza vs Jason ‘Mayhem’ Miller
(Middleweight Grand Prix)
Jacare by decision after 15 minutes
Yoon Dong-sik vs Gegard Mousasi
(Middleweight Grand Prix)
Mousasi by decision after 15 minutes
Zelg Galesic vs Taiei Kin
(Middleweight Grand Prix)
Galesic by knockout inside 10 minutes
Melvin Manhoef vs Kazushi Sakuraba
(Middleweight Grand Prix)
Manhoef by knockout inside 10 minutes
EliteXC: Return of the King
Yves Edwards vs KJ Noons
(EliteXC Lightweight Title)
Edwards by submission in the 2nd round
I can’t see Edwards letting his chance slip now that he has finally got himself a title shot. Noons is a good stand-up fighter but I think Edwards can match him standing up and will destroy him when the fight inevitably hits the mat.
